Differentiated Instruction Using Educational Technology Core requirement for MEd in Educational Technology Many current studies on the use of technology in elementary and secondary schools conclude that it’s appropriate use yields higher results in student achievement and engagement. The thoughtful use of technology in the classroom is tied to decreased exhibition of inappropriate behaviors, increased confidence and lowered student absenteeism among atrisk populations. However, an understanding of the rationale for and the process of integrating technology with regular content area instruction is not widely seen throughout all K-12 schools in the United States. Differentiated Instruction Using Educational Technology is a course that prepares educators to use technology in the classroom to reach all types of learners. Teachers learn to identify which educational technology tools, resources and applications will work best for their
specific population and how technology can help them increase the engagement and achievement of all students.

Integrating Media Literacy into Today’s K-12 Classroom
8
Media education adds value to just about every curriculum in the K-12 classroom. Media education has become a growing priority in today’s classroom because of the extent of the media’s importance in people’s lives. However, many teachers are unaware of the necessity and the techniques for making media literacy an integral part of the K-12 educational experience. On average, children in their middle and high school years spend 6-10 hours a day engaged either actively or passively in a ‘media-related’ activity. Because students, regardless of their learning style, attend more fully to activities and ideas that they connect with, the media is often used to influence them from a very young age. This makes it necessary for teachers to ‘train’ their students to analyze messages and understand the techniques utilized to influence them via a broad range of sound and visual communication technologies. This course will teach educators how to incorporate media literacy into the classroom curriculum, regardless of the subject taught. It will provide educators with the resources necessary to help students hone their critical thinking skills in a functional context so that they are able to recognize various marketing approaches, identify propaganda, understand stereotypes, critically evaluate media conveyed messages, and use the media as a tool for lifelong learning.

The Flipped Classroom: Shedding Light on the Model and its Options for Implementation The flipped classroom model is a studentcentered approach to learning. In this blended learning approach in-class time is ‘re-purposed’ for inquiry, application, and assessment in order to better meet the needs of the individual learners. The framework goes beyond transferring lectures to videos and instead provides opportunities for differentiated instruction, student interaction and project-based learning. The course will explore the advantages and disadvantages of the flipped classroom and the various options for implementing the process, which can range from a small number of flipped classes a year to a complete transition to the flipped classroom model. Numerous free resources will be introduced including interactive videos and slide shows, screencasting, online debates, blogging, collaborative tools, and useful assessment applications that provide ongoing student feedback.

Educational Practices Classroom Management for Inclusive Classrooms
Introduction to Danielson’s Professional Framework for Teaching
This course examines the research, creative learning strategies and standard curricula designed for small group instruction and independent learners. Participants focus on early childhood education and skill development, child-centered projects, innovative classroom management techniques, development of a a multi-level curriculum as well as exploration of the benefits of learning centers.

This course is appropriate for special education and classroom teachers looking for skill foundations for their students and the keys to math and reading problems.
The Framework for Teaching is a researchbased set of components of instruction, aligned to the Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (INTASC) standards. This conceptual model, developed by Charlotte Danielson, is grounded in a constructivist view of learning and teaching, which advocates that learning occurs as learners are actively involved in a process of meaning and knowledge construction as opposed to passively receiving information. The Framework is clustered into four domains: Planning and Preparation, Classroom Environment, Instruction, and Professional Responsibilities. This course is designed to assist the participants in understanding how the Framework for Teaching can enhance professional practice. Participants will also evaluate the latest research, examine case studies, and become familiar with instruments to support teacher evaluation and professional learning.

The Arts: ArtsWeek 3-D Projects for the Classroom: Collage + Assemblage — A Universal Framework for Communication Children and young adults have grown up in a media-drenched environment, full of appropriation. It is second nature to young people to create and curate personal collections of these images. Collage and assemblage as an art practice seeks to recontextualize that collective imagery to be presented in thoughtful and communicative ways. In this course, educators will learn to create collages and assemblages that communicate a focused message. We will explore the ways in which collage and assemblage has been used across cultures and by various artists. We will discuss the environmental and socioeconomic benefits to the art form, using recycled, salvaged, and personal imagery and artifacts to create works of art. Educators will come away with a deep appreciation for meaning in everyday objects and materials for artistic expression.

Museum Resources Visual Arts as a Source for Teaching (VAST) at Philadelphia Museum of Art
Exploring the Barnes Foundation — Projects for the Classroom
Each summer the Philadelphia Museum of Art’s Division of Education offers K-12 teachers of all subject areas the chance to renew their spirit of inquiry through VAST: Visual Arts as a Source for Teaching. This summer, the theme will be “Unlocking Creativity.” Engaging with art develops the habits of mind that unlock our creativity. The complexity of a work of art requires close observation and the ambiguous nature of interpretation encourages us to generate a variety of ideas and consider multiple perspectives. The process of art encourages taking risks, learning from failure, and persisting in finding solutions to a challenge. Building these thinking dispositions makes us better learners in all subjects. Contact the PMA at 215.235.7469. Visit uarts.edu/pie for full course description and exhibition details.
Celebrated for its breadth, depth and quality, the Barnes Foundation’s art collection, now in its Parkway location, includes works by some of the greatest European and American masters of impressionism, post-impressionist and early modern art, as well as African sculpture, Pennsylvania German decorative arts, Native American textiles, metalwork and more. The class considers the “wall ensembles” approach of Dr. Barnes, the intentional combination of works from different time periods, geographic areas and styles for the purpose of aesthetic comparison and study. Participants create and develop a series of activities and lesson plans designed for classroom application into a range of subject areas and grade levels using the arts to enrich learning for all students.
